One major function of a monosaccharide is its use for energy within a living organism

store energy in the form of disaccharides

Many polysaccharides are used to store energy in organisms.

MONOSACCHARIDES

  • Fruits, vegetables and honey
  • from the digestion of sucrose
  • Small amounts are found in some fruits, vegetables and honey
  • Manufactured foods

DISACCHARIDES

  • Derived from sugar cane and sugar beet
  • Sweet root vegetables such as beetroot and carrots
  • Table sugar, manufactured foods
  • Malted wheat and barley
  • Malt extract
  • Beer

POLYSACCHARIDES

  • Cereal foods
  • Potato
